Why recycle coffee capsules?
When you choose to recycle Nespresso capsules, you are helping to reduce waste, extend the useful life of resources and reduce the carbon footprint of your cup of coffee.
When we recycle capsules, we separate the coffee grounds from the aluminium. The coffee grounds can be turned into compost, while the aluminium can be recycled, promoting a more sustainable life cycle.
More than 90% of Nespresso consumers have access to practical recycling solutions.
How to recycle Nespresso aluminium capsules
If you consume more than 12,000 coffee capsules per year, contact us to activate our free pick-up service.
If you consume fewer than 12,000 capsules, there are numerous recycling options available. One is to go along to one of the more than 7,000 capsule collection points all over Spain. Find your closest point and join the movement for a more sustainable future here!
RELOVE coffee machines
By choosing a sustainable coffee machine such as a RELOVE machine rather than a new one, not only are you extending its useful life, but you are also contributing to the circular economy. You'll get the same quality and guarantee as a new machine, and the satisfaction of knowing that each cup of coffee is contributing to a more sustainable future. With RELOVE, you can savour the unforgettable taste of your coffee while you take care of the planet.
